ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for shucking pecans having a stator, which is a trapezoidal front plate with a pair of adjoining tapered side-walls with longitudinal edges, a mounting bracket for immobilizing the stator, and a chute which is a reservoir for the pecans, where said stator is axially connected to a rotor, which is a circular back plate that pivots at the centroid of the front plate; the combination of the back plate and the front plate forming a chamber that is narrow at the bottom, wherein the pecans are cracked as the rotor is rocked back and forth through an arc, where the rocking action forces the pecans into compression and then in the reverse rock into relief, where the shell separates from the kernel.
